This Sweet Mustard Salad Dressing is SO easy, and so amazingly flavorful and fresh. You can whip this up in no time with simple healthy ingredients.

Once I started making my own dressings I never needed to buy a store-bought bottle again. I love knowing exactly what’s going on my salad, as opposed to the strange ingredients you might find in bottled dressings.
Out of all the dressings I made, this is my all time favorite go-to salad dressing. I always have these ingredients on hand so it’s always super easy; my husband even learned how to make it and he rarely cooks, so you know it’s got to be easy. =)
Add all ingredients to a small bowl. With a small whisk or spoon, stir until combined. Drizzle on salad. This Sweet Mustard Salad Dressing will stay fresh in the fridge (in an airtight container) for about a week.

The mustard called for here, is that something out of the baking aisle or the condiment aisle? It wasn’t until after I had mixed something from the condiment aisle in that I wondered if that’s really what was meant…

Hi Sherwood- the mustard I use is in the condiment aisle. It’s by the yellow mustard; the only difference is it’s whole grain so it has seeds mixed in. So good! =)
Sherwood says
Whew! Glad to know I was on the right track here. The mustard I used had ground whole seeds (so there’s specks, but not whole seeds). Would you recommend mustard with intact seeds? Do you have a brand you recommend? I’m not sure I saw any that had intact seeds, but I didn’t look too hard.
Christin says
I would think any type of mustard would taste good, as long as it’s more of a dijon mustard instead of yellow mustard (and as long as they have seeds or “specks” instead of smooth). I usually use Trader Joe’s Whole Grain Dijon Mustard but I also have Inglehoffer Stone Ground Mustard in my fridge. Both taste great! I hope this helps. =)
Sherwood says
It does. Thanks! I feel far more comfortable with this now. 😀 Just had some with my salad earlier. It’s rather strong, and a little goes a long way. I appreciate that. It lasts longer this way. lol
